What it is: The CES Exhibitor List 2027 gives a company-level view of every organisation exhibiting at CES 2027. Instead of scanning individual exhibitor pages one at a time, the dataset brings every exhibiting company together into a single resource built for research and targeting. It works as a starting point for anyone trying to understand who is showing up at the event and where those companies sit in the market.

Who uses it: Sales and marketing teams use the list to build account lists around specific technology categories and shape outreach ahead of the event. Partnership teams use the same universe to identify potential technology providers, suppliers, and distributors worth approaching. Market researchers use it to map which segments of a category show up at CES year over year, and event planners use it to understand the competitive landscape before the show floor opens.

What it covers: Each record includes the exhibiting company name, its booth location, the category it exhibits under, and basic firmographic details such as location. The dataset reflects companies confirmed to exhibit at CES 2027 rather than companies that exhibited in past years, so the list stays tied to the current event rather than historical participation.

How it fits with other CES data: The exhibitor list works as a standalone company universe, and it also works as the first layer in a wider research workflow. Once you have identified the exhibitors relevant to your work, hiring data, funding data, and sanctions data can each add another layer of detail about those same companies.

Good to know: Exhibitor participation can change between now and the event, and the list reflects the most current confirmed information available at the time of purchase. For research that depends on exact current status, checking the record close to the event date is worth the extra step.

What it is: CES Exhibiting Companies Hiring connects the CES exhibitor universe with hiring activity. Instead of treating the exhibitor list as a static record of who is attending, the dataset layers active hiring signals on top of it, giving you another way to see which companies are expanding their teams around the time of the event.

Who uses it: Sales and marketing teams use hiring activity to add timing and context to account research, since a company adding headcount often has budget and priorities shifting alongside it. Recruitment, staffing, and HR technology businesses use the dataset to find exhibitors with relevant open roles. Training and professional services providers use it the same way, looking for companies whose growth signals a broader need for support.

What it covers: The dataset tracks open roles advertised by CES exhibiting companies across functions including engineering, product, sales, marketing, operations, finance, customer success, manufacturing, research, and human resources. Each record ties the hiring activity back to the exhibiting company so you can see the exhibitor profile and its current hiring picture in one place. Role counts and functions are updated as new postings appear and older ones close, so the picture stays close to hiring activity at the time you pull the data.

How it fits with other CES data: The dataset works alongside the CES Exhibitor List 2027. The exhibitor list answers who is participating in the event, and hiring data adds a layer of workforce activity on top of that answer. Used together, they help you prioritise which exhibitors are worth a closer look.

Good to know: Hiring activity reflects roles that were open at the time the data was gathered, and postings can close or change before you review them. Treat the signal as a starting point for prioritisation rather than a guarantee that a role remains open at the moment you reach out.

What it is: CES Exhibiting Companies Funding adds financing information to the CES exhibitor universe. The dataset connects each exhibiting company to relevant funding activity, giving you a fuller picture of the business behind the booth rather than just a name and a category.

Who uses it: Sales and marketing teams use funding activity to shortlist exhibitors that fit a particular market stage or company profile. Technology providers and professional services businesses use the same signal to spot organisations whose business requirements may be changing as new capital comes in. Investors and market researchers use it to track which segments of the CES exhibitor base are attracting capital.

What it covers: Records include the exhibiting company name along with associated funding activity where available, such as the round type and approximate timing. The dataset focuses on funding tied to companies confirmed to exhibit at CES 2027, so the financing signal stays connected to the current event rather than a broader universe of unrelated companies. Where verified investor information is available, it is included alongside the round details to add extra context.

How it fits with other CES data: Funding data works well alongside hiring data. An exhibitor with both financing and hiring activity presents a broader research profile than either signal shows on its own, and reviewing them together can surface companies worth prioritising for outreach, particularly where financial backing and team growth show up at the same time.

Good to know: Not every exhibitor has publicly available funding information, and coverage depends on what has been disclosed and verified. Funding activity is a research signal rather than confirmation of a company's current financial position, growth trajectory, or future plans. Checking a funding record against the underlying announcement or press coverage is worth doing before it goes into outreach or reporting.

What it is: CES Exhibiting Companies Sanctions adds sanctions and restricted-party information to CES exhibiting companies. Rather than growth or investment signals, this dataset is built for screening and risk research, giving compliance and procurement teams a starting point for due diligence.

Who uses it: Businesses reviewing exhibitors as potential suppliers, customers, or partners use this data as one layer of due diligence before moving forward. International businesses use it when reviewing companies across different markets and regions, where exposure to risk can vary widely from one place to the next. Compliance and legal teams use it to flag records that need a closer look.

What it covers: The dataset checks CES exhibiting companies against relevant sanctions and restricted-party records and flags names that may need closer attention. Coverage is built around companies confirmed to exhibit at CES 2027, so the check stays tied to the current exhibitor base rather than a broader, unconnected list of companies. Each record is checked against the exhibitor's company name and other details on file to reduce false matches wherever possible during the review process.

How it fits with other CES data: Sanctions data serves a different purpose than hiring or funding data. Hiring is a workforce signal, funding is a financing signal, and sanctions data is used for screening and risk work rather than growth research, so it sits at a different stage of a research or buying process than the other two datasets typically cover, and it often comes into play later on.

Good to know: A potential name match is a starting point, not proof that an exhibitor and a listed entity are the same company. Names can look alike, so a proper check may need more identifiers and corporate details before any conclusion is drawn. Treat the result as one input in a broader review process rather than a final answer taken entirely on its own, especially in a fast-moving procurement process.
